California Seaweed Festival

Join Save Our Shores at the 7th Annual California Seaweed Festival, hosted this year in Monterey!

Monterey Bay is one of the most biodiverse marine ecosystems on Earth. Its underwater forests of kelp and other seaweeds support an incredible web of life, from sea otters to abalone to the communities that steward this coast. This year’s festival invites everyone to Dive In.

Join researchers, innovators, chefs, and ocean advocates for a day of talks, demos, seaweed tastings, and hands-on exploration of the science, culture, and future of macroalgae.

At a moment when kelp forests along the Monterey Peninsula have dramatically declined, the festival is both a celebration of ocean biodiversity and an invitation to cultivate ocean abundance together.

Free event!
